Install door and hinges in an existing jamb like a professional carpenter. No need to get a prehung door, I show you how to mortise the hinges, install knob, and properly put up door stop trim. All without replacing the jamb and removing the molding and casing.

I wish that this was the first video that I saw because this was more similar to my situation than other videos I watched. Thank you!

@cristianmaltez3016 8 месяцев назад

You explained it easy to understand for DIYers like myself. I'll be looking out for more of your videos.👍

Im trying to replace the cheap hollowcore doors with raised panal doors just like you did in this vid. The only problem i have run into is each of these cheap ass contractor grade doors are a differant size widths and i dont know what to buy at the store. All the doors seem to come in even size widths. I guess i will need to take the doors to the store with me and find the closest width and attempt to cut them down.

@HouseDoctorRay 4 месяца назад

Measure just the door, not the opening. A 32" door is going to be slightly less than 32". Doors are also sometimes labeled differently. A 32" door might be labeled 2-8 for 2 foot 8 inches. A 3-0 door is 3 feet or 36". Ripping a door down to width is tricky business and you definitely need a straight edge. You should also take half off of each side. For example if you need it ½" narrower you should take a ¼" off of each side. Some people recommend an angled cut on the knob side. I personally never worried about that.

@mbsocol 2 года назад

Love this. Two questions. First why do the door stops need to be bowed away from the door? Second, I have an old door with a deadbolt bore that is much smaller than the standard 2 1/8" bore we use today. I recently bought one of the jig kits you used in this video to widen the bore so I could change out the deadbolt, but I chickened out on using it because I've heard they're prone to break and I'm afraid to damage the door. But then I saw you use this kit with very little preparation. Am I being overly cautious? Or have you hung a lot of doors and I'm right to be concerned since I've never done it?

@HouseDoctorRay 2 года назад

If you put the door stop flat against the door when the door bows with seasonal movement it will either rattle or not close. By just using the top and bottom as contact points the door closes better. If you're working on an exterior door that is a different story because you have weather stripping. I wouldn't use a knob jig to make an existing hole bigger. I would drill the desired size hole in a piece of 3/4 plywood. Then clamp that in place to guide the holesaw. You need something substantial to hold the holesaw in line when you don't have a pilot bit engaged.

Pretty good- one of the most detailed videos for door I have found - Need more details at 3:04 please- I did not get how to get router depth - how can I make hinge cuts without a router ? Is there a drill bit ? Thanks

@HouseDoctorRay Год назад

You could use a forstner bit for the rounded corners but depth would be tricky. There are other jigs out there but this kit is very easy to use.

@yotedawg Год назад

This is excellent video, thank you. Question, what bit did you use with the trim router when doing the hinges template?

@HouseDoctorRay Год назад

A pattern mortising bit. It comes with the kit.

@yotedawg Год назад

@@HouseDoctorRay ok I have a 1/4”collet size on my trim router hopefully it fits that

@lytleric 11 месяцев назад

Did you bevel the door? I am replacing all the interior doors in my house and most other videos discuss beveling the edge of the door for a better fit. Did you not do this?

@HouseDoctorRay 11 месяцев назад

If you're working with standard size doors you'll find they fit just fine. In an older house built before pre hung doors you may need to bevel the door to get a good fit. Best thing to do is mortise for the hinges and hang the door first. Then you'll see if a bevel is needed.

Header stop first, then style stops and no pencil marks.

@KLNYC 2 года назад

isnt the hinge symetrical? can you do conduit bending?

@HouseDoctorRay 2 года назад

Yes they're symmetrical but I routed them to hange the door on the other side. Not sure what conduit bending has to do with anything. Are you suggesting I do a video on that?

@KLNYC 2 года назад

@@HouseDoctorRay yes do a video on conduit bending. Sorry, i should be more clear.

@MAGAMAN Год назад

How do you get the hinge cutout into the door jamb? You left out the most important part.

@HouseDoctorRay Год назад

This video was about just replacing the door in an existing jamb. However, you just use the same jig on the door jamb. Just screw it in place and route for the hinges.

How much should some one charge to hang 3 doors just like that the doors were installed prehung back in 2010 and I want to replace the doors exactly like you did and ball park what will some one charge

@HouseDoctorRay 2 месяца назад

Depends on where you live. I would think it would be $100 a door labor. You can check homewyse.com to get an idea of costs in your area.

@slh48 2 месяца назад

Thank you I am in Maryland what’s the going rate for a Pre hung door wondering the doors are actually prehung when they were installed because my home was built started in 2009 and finished in 2010 shows the original doors are pre hung doors I want the different style door if I wasn’t sick with this Lyme disease I would go out and buy the tools like you have and do it my self it looks really easy your video is great hit the nail on the head one showing someone how to do it their selves if they choose to I watched a few other videos and yours definitely was the best👍👍👍👍👍

@HouseDoctorRay 2 месяца назад

Thanks! Again, check out Homewyse, their estimates are pretty close to what you can expect to pay. Looks like Maryland is more expensive than where I live. www.homewyse.com/services/cost_to_install_interior_door.html
